List of NCAA rifle programs

Last updated

The following are schools that field collegiate teams in rifle in the NCAA. Since there are only 22 Division I schools, 2 Division II schools, and 5 Division III schools that sponsor rifle, the NCAA holds only a single National Collegiate championship. There are 2 men's teams, 9 women's teams, and 23 mixed/co-ed teams (the number of teams exceeds the number of schools because four schools field two teams).
